A career without blemishes.

Ideal's 'The Game of Jaws' was released in 1975, tying in with the blockbuster movie 'Jaws.' The nerve-wracking, Operation-like game was a lot of fun, and we wish we still had it!

The Sam Peckinpah film was released 56 years ago today.

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump sees what needs to happen in the Middle East as Israel and Iran take their decades-long war out of the shadows. Push for a ceasefire? Not really. “An end, a real end, not a ceasefire,” Trump told reporters during an early return to Washington from the G7 meeting in Calgary. Trump added, “a complete give-up, that’s possible.” The bottom line, as Trump posted on Truth Social, “Simply stated, IRAN CAN NOT HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON.” No lie. The world saw the carnage wrought by Iran when its proxy Hamas butchered 1,200 people, mostly civilians in Israel, on Oct. 7, 2023. That unprovoked barbarism occurred thanks to the sponsorship of an Iran without nuclear weapons. Now Trump is taking heat from both the left and the right. From the right, Tucker Carlson went off on conservative “warmongers” who support U.S. involvement in Israel’s war against Iran. It was a dig that brought to mind 2016 Trump, who campaigned for the White House as a less trigger-happy brand of Republican, one committed to eschewing foreign entanglements — a departure from the previous two GOP commanders-in-chief, both named Bush. Trump is not the cowboy here. The real warmongers are Iranians who chant, “Death to Israel, Death to America.” From the left, Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Virginia, offered, “I am deeply concerned that the recent escalation of hostilities between Israel and Iran could quickly pull the United States into another endless conflict.” But as Jonathan Schanzer, executive director of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, sees it, “The United States has an ally that is doing the hard work.” If the GOP rallied behind Trump right now, Schanzer added, that would give the president “much more leverage with the Iranians.” Israel has “total air dominance right now,” Schanzer continued. “They’re operating at will inside the regime’s air space. The regime doesn’t control it and they continue to target assets and then potentially collapse.” Vice President JD Vance jumped onto X to assure supporters that Trump is not war happy, and that he’s looking out for American interests first. “I have yet to see a single good argument for why Iran needed to enrich uranium well above the threshold for civilian use. I’ve yet to see a single good argument for why Iran was justified in violating its non-proliferation obligations. I’ve yet to see a single good pushback against the IAEA’s findings,” Vance wrote, referring to the International Atomic Energy Agency. Last week, for the first time, the IAEA declared that Iran was failing to comply with its nuclear obligations. The ayatollah’s intransigence pushed Trump to call for Iran’s “unconditional surrender” by Tuesday — one difference, Trump’s post was all caps. As I write this, Axios’ Barak Ravid reports that Trump is “seriously considering … launching a U.S. strike against Iran’s nuclear facilities.” Critics warn that the wrong action could lead to endless war, but the same can be said of inaction — and that’s Iran’s game.

The American Spectator spoke to sources from the Iranian opposition. These include a former and current resident of Iran, both of whom relayed to us information from extensive contacts in the country. These sources include Iranians “living in the center of Tehran” and across the country. Coming from a regime stained with blood, our sources provided this information with great courage. The Iranian regime has taken action to block the internet in the country. Few Iranians are able to reach friends outside their country’s borders. Those who are able to access the internet rely on Elon Musk’s Starlink service. Our source said that those in Iran had told them “doing anything is really hard” as a result of the airstrikes trapping Iranians at home. With Israel maintaining control over the skies of Iran, “everyone is scared to go outside,” although many Iranians have fled the capital city of Tehran, often to the north of the country. Our source advised friends in Tehran to leave the city. In response, residents of Tehran told them, “We can’t just leave our home and go.” Iran maintains a system of subsidized gasoline prices that those in the country say now is “being used to limit gas consumption” to 15-20 liters (4-5 gallons) per day maximum, far from enough to flee the sites of war for most residents. Our source told The American Spectator that most Iranians wish for “basic freedom” such as “internet and free speech.” However, most anti-regime Iranians are “still scared that Islamic Republic intelligence [will] kidnap them and execute them.”  Many oppositionists remember past protests, where “there were many executed” on accusations with “no proof ever provided by the Islamic Republic juristic system” of being spies affiliated with the Israeli intelligence agency Mossad. However, most people “never wanted any fight with Israel.” Our source relayed seeing “people living worse than people in Gaza” during a relatively recent time spent in Iran, particularly in the southeastern region of Balochistan, where “they don’t have water, they need to buy water for washing and drinking.”  When wells reach a high point, drownings of young children are common. In these villages, residents see “children dying for water.” This was said to be a quality of life people would normally associate with “Gaza or Africa.” Our source speculated that just 20 percent of Iranians still support the regime. They “don’t trust Israel doing this” and believe their nation will collapse akin to Iraq unless the regime secures victory. This demographic was emphasized to be in the minority among Iranians.  The American Spectator was told that many Iranians worry about what might replace the regime, as the opposition is divided between monarchist supporters of Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi, son of the late Shah of Iran deposed during the 1979 Iranian Revolution, and those of other inclinations, ranging from conservatives who seek a republic to socialists.  The source said that Iranian people “hope for the regime to fall” and “showed that we don’t want this Islamic regime with our protests.”  They claimed many Iranians in the opposition felt that world governments gave the regime too much legitimacy and international recognition “without looking into the details,” because “people [in Iran] know about the regime’s lies.” The source said they felt most Iranians still “don’t have hope of [the regime] falling this easily” after 40 years of struggle. They claimed that it “feels like a far-fetched dream.” This source identified the shutdown of the internet as a significant challenge for the opposition due to the role social media sites such as Reddit and Telegram have played in organizing anti-regime activity. Due to this, they believed “people’s morale is very low.”  This source was not an optimist. They cited the amount of Iranian propaganda across international media and claimed that the regime wants “to buy time as much as they can in hope that the world would forget about this or make them [the world] forget” through influencing foreign media. Independent journalists in Iran often struggle with bringing their stories globally, such as allegations of voter fraud against former President Ibrahim Raisi. Many pro-Iran sources in neighboring Middle Eastern countries have journalists “paid by the Islamic Republic to stay quiet” on issues such as the murder of Mahsa Amini, who was murdered in 2022 by the Iranian regime for not wearing a hijab. Bound by tyranny, our sources exhibited daring in speaking to the outside world. Near the end of our communication, the source made clear that communicating with foreigners means “their life is on the line.” Shiv Parihar is an editorial intern at The American Spectator, you can follow him on X @ShivomMParihar.
